Letra Know yourself Bliss N Eso

Know yourself

Know you don’t have to play their games
Lose yourself just to fit their frames
Don’t need to throw your hope
Down that wishing well
If you just know know know yourself

When I was just a whippersnapper playing with my action figures
By the river dandelion wishing catching crickets
They used to say that I was strange and that Max was different
My mama said they must be crazy baby that’s your ticket
With mum and dad all I’d feel was pleasure
The memories they left with me became my realist treasure
But then my parents split, it wasn’t easy or fun
But now I gots to man up because it’s just me and my mum
I was young
And even though we lived in housing commission
Love decorated every house that we lived in
And all that love she’d give me
Would only up and lift me
But when she passed I wore a mask like no one really gets me
So all I had to do was just remember what was real
She’d want me to be happy and my heart to seal and heal
So now that I’m a daddy I’m a show you what’s the deal
Make this house a home so that love is all you feel, yo

Know you don’t have to play their games
Lose yourself just to fit their frames
Don’t need to throw your hope
Down that wishing well
If you just know know know yourself
Growing up I always knew I was different
On that yellow bus it’s tough to fit in
A world ruled by the cool
So run little lamb to that school full of wolves
I’m dressed in red
Just look at my wool mama
These bullies are bulls
And I am the bullseye
I felt so alone
And when ya ostracised
You want to hide like the ostrich eyes
And yeah I cried when I got my first girlfriend
And she broke my heart it’s like the whole damn world ends
But really it doesn’t
If I could go back I would tell my younger self that everything would be all right
Listen these ain’t L’s be cool J
Even Batman didn’t know what he become when he was just a young Bruce Wayne
So keep paddling Johnny
You’ll surf that blue wave

Know you don’t have to play their games
Lose yourself just to fit their frames
Don’t need to throw your hope
Down that wishing well
If you just know know know yourself
No you don’t have to run away
Lose yourself like your tears in the rain
Let your better angels break you out of this hell because your soul’s gold
Know yourself
